Clifton Preparatory School, Nottingham Road is a private, co-educational day and boarding primary school located in the Nottingham Road area of the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands in South Africa.
History
The school was founded in 1942 when a number of Clifton Durban boys moved to the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands over fears of danger during World War II.
Clifton has added Grade 00 and phased out Grade 8 which traditionally was a boys-only grade.

Grounds
The school has 60 hectares of land.
